GARTNER
About this episode

In 2023, ThinkCast has covered mission-critical business topics from supply chain disruptions to hybrid work to strategic planning. But one topic has dominated the conversation: generative AI.

 

For our best-of-the-year special, we've focused on three insightful angles you can use to explore generative AI. First, Gartner VP Analyst Svetlana Sicular goes over the basics of GenAI. Then, Afraz Jaffri, Director Analyst and the editor of this year's AI Hype Cycle, explains why GenAI falls in the peak of inflated expectations. Finally, Tony Sheehan, a VP Analyst focused on education, talks about how teachers, students and educational institutions should approach AI to manage risks and open up new ways of learning.
